Overview

Jds Gurukul in Kathua, Jammu & Kashmir is on the lookout for a Academic Coordinator. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery.

  • Observe classes, give actionable feedback, follow up on teacher development.
  • Approve calendars, assessment papers, and major parent communication.
  • Engage with leadership on hiring, budgets, and infrastructure needs.
  • Spend time on the floor — corridors, classrooms, labs — to read the school accurately. Requirements:
  • Master's degree with a relevant teaching qualification (B.Ed./M.Ed. preferred).
  • Significant classroom experience plus years in coordination/leadership.
  • Calm, confident judgement with students, parents, and staff.
  • Clear writing for academic plans, reports, and parent communication.
  • A track record of building and retaining strong teaching teams. Benefits and culture:
  • Salary in line with experience and market norms (₹12.9 LPA – ₹19.6 LPA).
